Pros

Great benefits. Good parking. Coffee machine.

Cons

Nepotism rules somfy usa - people get hired for who they know, not what they know. Salaries are low because hirees are not knowledgeable in the field. Somfy claims they will train you but then gives no support. If you are not friends with someone in upper management, you will not be appreciated. The CEO in the US doesn’t talk to anyone except others in high management, he is unfriendly and unmotivating. Do not bother going to HR for anything - they are incompetent, very lazy and have a lot of dirt on the company so won’t be fired and are counting down days to retirement. Don’t trust HR either - they will change their handbook to suit their needs at any time. High turnover rate - it’s not always about business here.

We understand that change, in any capacity, is difficult at times for employees. Still, our history of success results from our ability to continuously make operational adjustments necessary to achieve the desired goals of the team and company.

Pros

Good parking lot. Impressive lobby. Some nice people are there doing their time & counting down their days.

Cons

Management doesn’t care at all about their employees. They will drain you like vampires if you let them. They have denied good employees their lunch break & then said “Somfy doesn’t break laws” and then fired them. It happened, I saw it. So have a good lawyer on standby. And document everything lousy management does. They spy, eavesdrop and lie. Beware!
